<p>
      Modules are the mechanism by which GnomeVFS accesses different filesystems,
      from http, to the local disk, to smb. Module authors must implement a simple
      set of filesystem operations and can provide varying degrees of service (read-only,
      read-write, seeking, etc). Modules are dynamically loaded based upon the URI
      scheme passed into the high-level GnomeVFS APIs.
